INTRODUCTION
Vivekanand Degree College
Stock exchanges to some extent play an important role as indicators, reflecting the
performance of the country's economic state of health. Stock market is a place where
securities are bought and sold. It is exposed to a high degree of volatility; prices fluctuate
within minutes and are determined by the demand and supply of stocks at a given time.
Stockbrokers are the ones who buy and sell securities on behalf of individuals and institutions
for some commission. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is the authorized
body, which regulates the operations of stock exchanges, banks and other financial
institutions. The past performances in the capital markets especially the securities scam by
Harshad Mehta has led to tightening of the operations by SEBI. In addition the
international trading and investment exposure has made it imperative to better operational
efficiency. With the view to improve, discipline and bring greater transparency in this sector,
constant efforts are being made and to a certain extent improvements have been made. As the
condition of capital markets are constantly improving, it has started drawing attention of lot
more people than before. On the career related aspects, professionals have opportunities to
choose from for a wide range of jobs available in a number of organizations in this sector and
one can expect to have good times ahead of him.

eighteenth century.

excluding the Over The Counter Exchange of India Limited (OTCEI) and the National
Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSEIL).

Daily analysis for the month of january
January 1st
The Manmohan Singh government and the Reserve Bank of India governor Duvvuri
Subbarao slashed taxes and opened the floodgates of liquidity boosting people morale that
brought back global investors. That saw the benchmark Sensitive Index of the Bombay Stock
Exchange surge 81% during the year, just a shade below the 82% gain in 1991, the year when
Manmohan Singh took charge of the finance ministry under prime minister PV Narasimha
Rao. That year Sensex ended at 1,908 and in 2009, at 17,464. The index had given negative
returns for just 5 years in the last two decades, with it remaining flat in 1996.
One of the most agonising moments was in early January when Mr Ramalinga Raju,
chairman of Satyam Computer Services disclosed an accounting fraud, leading to the stock
crashing more than 85% in a couple of sessions. That incident made the question of
“corporate governance in India” rear its head once again, after a decade of painful image
building.
For the first time ever, Indian stock markets were shut for soaring unbelievably. Previous
shut downs were only to avoid crashes. The Sensex soared 17% that Monday. Global
investors followed. The tally this year is more than $17 billion of investments, more than
what they took home a year before.
5th January
THE Nifty closed at yearly highs and Nifty futures closed at a premium to the spot,
suggesting an upward momentum in the index. The ongoing rally may continue amid
concerns of being overbought, as deep-in-the-money call options open interest (OI) either has

6th janaury
THE Bombay Stock Exchange benchmark index Sensex on Tuesday surged by over 127
points to touch a 23-month high on sustained buying by funds in heavyweight stocks led by
metals, mostly copper and aluminium stocks.
The Sensex had a gap-up opening of over 171 points and closed the day with a gain of
127.51 points to close at 17,686.24, a level seen in February 2008.
The key index touched the day’s high of 17,729.78. This is the second consecutive rally of

points.
The broader NSE’s Nifty also rose by 45.70 points to 5,277.90, after touching a high of
5,288.35. The rally was mostly attributed to rising interest in metal stocks followed by realty
and technology sector stocks. However, a further fall in the Reliance Industries, which is the
heaviest counter among the Sensex scrips, by Rs 5.
India’s largest copper producer Sterlite gained 4.9% after prices of the metal in London,
New York and Shanghai reached 16-month highs on Monday. Cairn India, an oil explorer,
climbed 3.6% after crude futures in New York reached the highest settlement since October
2008.
Biggest aluminium maker in the country Hindalco Industries rose 7.2%, while National
Overseas funds bought a net $178.7 million of domestic equities on December 31, taking
their investments in stocks last year to $17.7 billion, the market regulator said on Tuesday.

ratio of 1.1:1 on volume of 602 million shares.
Energy giant Reliance Industries, which has the highest weight on the Sensex, recovered
1.8% to Rs 1,088.80 after dropping as much over the two previous sessions. Financial stocks

shed 1.4% and Wipro lost 1.7%, after rallying 131% and nearly 200%, respectively, since the
start of 2009. Infosys, the No. 2 Indian outsourcer, is set to announce quarterly results on
January 12.

gains. Tata Steel shed 1.1%, Hindalco dropped 2.5% and Sterlite Industries eased 0.1%. Tata
Power Company rose 4.6% to Rs 1,474.10, taking gains over five sessions to 9.1%, as

holding in two Indonesian mines. The 50-share NSE index closed 0.1 percent higher at
5,281.80.

lower US index futures. IT stocks fell for the second straight day, as the rupee surged to its
new 15-month high, backed by large dollar sales by foreign banks. The BSE Sensex and the

announced by the company a short while ago
As per a leading business daily, engineering major L&T is contemplating borrowing as
much as US$ 4.4 bn to build a power generation business. Further, plans on the anvil also
include buying coal mines in Australia and Indonesia to gain fuel supplies. Obviously, the
company is looking to capitalize on the power generation opportunity given the acute power
shortages that India has been facing. In-fact, peak-hour shortages were as high as 12.6% this
year. However, L&T already has a high amount of debt on its books. This was amply evident
during 2QFY10 when interest costs surged by 61% YoY. What is more, interest costs for the
first half of this fiscal had substantially increased by 83% YoY. The stock closed lower
today, while its peers Voltas and BHEL closed firm.

INVESTORS hammered the markets on Thursday, pulling down the benchmark Sensex by
2.42% or over 423 points on worries that China may further tighten its monetary policy after
the double-digit growth in the last quarter, reports agencies from Mumbai. The 30-share

2.44% breaking two key levels of 5,200 and 5,100 points to a hit low of 5,094.15. It dipped to
5,085.45 during the day. Analysts said China, after its stupendous 10.7% GDP growth in the
fourth quarter, will be have to cool down its overheated economy through monetary
and fiscal policy measures. This led to FIIs resorting to panic selling. The second biggest
dampener was the less-than-expected Q3 earnings by Larsen & Toubro. L&T plunged to
6.85% after the results.
23rd January
INDIA’S most valuable company, Reliance Industries, bettered market expectations to clock
its first quarterly profit growth in over a year, thanks to fresh outflow from its gas fields that

the order flow to the IT companies from BFSI ,” said Nilesh Doshi, president of equities at

cautious ahead of the opening of the large follow-on public offer (FPO) of state-run power
generation firm NTPC. The market pared gains as some Asian stocks reversed gains and US
index futures fell. Attempts at a recovery proved futile as heightened volatility pushed the
markets to close near the day’s lows. The BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty closed in the red losing
1.2% and 1.4% each. The BSE Mid-cap and Small-cap indices outperformed the benchmark
indices with losses of 1.2% and 0.8% respectively. Among the frontliners, HDFC, Hindalco

THE Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensitive Index pulled back from an early slide and
eked out a 0.1% gain on Monday, after a recovery in their European peers helped soothe
nerves. Beaten down telecoms Bharti Airtel and Reliance Communications led the rise. The
government forecast the economy will grow 7.2% in the current fiscal year that ends in
March, picking up from a six-year low in the previous year and reinforcing market
expectations of strong industrial growth.
The rebound could prepare the ground for a roll-back in stimulus incentives when the
Union Budget is unveiled on February 26 and hasten an increase in interest rates to tame
inflation pressures.
For the time being, however, investors will be watching the debt problems in Europe,
traders said. “The market will continue to be volatile in near term, until the global picture has
some clarity,” said Vaibhav Sanghavi, director of Ambit Capital. “The worries in the euro
zone will weigh.”
The BSE Sensex ended up 0.13%, or 19.96 points, at 15,935.61, after falling 1.7% at one
stage. Sixteen of its components gained. Bharti, India’s leading mobile operator, rose 2.7% to

The benchmark indices had a dull start after the US market suffered a severe setback
yesterday, with the Dow sliding below the 10,000 mark. However, after a strong intraday
rebound in morning trade, the market erased all its gains and slipped into the red briefly in
mid-morning trade. Sustained buying demand in select pivotals and a rebound in Asian
indices triggered a recovery in early afternoon trade. The BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty were up
by 0.7% each. The BSE Mid-cap and Small-cap indices were up by 0.4% each. Among the
front-liners, Grasim, ACC, Infosys, Wipro and Sun Pharma were up by 2-5%, while DLF,
Hindalco, M&M, HUL and Maruti Suzuki were down by 1-2%. In the mid-cap segment
HMT, STC, Patni Computers, National Fertilizers and BGR Energy were up by 6-11%, while

The Indian markets had a rather volatile trading session today. The morning session saw the
indices fluctuating to either side of Friday's close before selling activity intensified and
pushed them into the red. Any attempts thereafter to move towards the dotted line proved
futile and the indices closed well into the red. While the BSE Sensex closed lower by around
114 points (down 1%), the NSE Nifty lost around 28 points (down 1%). Midcap and small
cap stocks were also at the receiving end, notching losses of 1% and 0.4% respectively.
Losses were largely seen in banking and oil & gas stocks.
As regards global markets, most Asian indices closed weak today while European indices
have opened on a mixed note. The rupee was trading at Rs 46.36 to the dollar at the time of
writing.
MNC pharma stocks showed mixed trend. While Aventis and Pfizer found favour, GSK
Pharma and Novartis closed in the red. Aventis notched gains of 2% in today's session. The
company has done well in the year so far with its domestic business (excluding the product
'Rabipur') and exports growing by 14% YoY and 24% YoY in 9mCY09 respectively. Aventis
is a very strong player in the chronic therapy space and although there has been intense
competition in certain therapeutic areas in which the company is present, it has nevertheless
managed to hold on to its market share. Further, the company is also looking to tap the rural
markets to augment its sales for which it has set up a separate marketing division. Thus, these
The company's performance in the December 2009 was also robust with sales growing by
63% YoY and margins expanding from a paltry 1.9% in 3QFY09 to a healthy 12.8% in
3QFY10. Improved consumer sentiments, a favourable financing environment and a low base
effect contributed to the robust performance both in the December quarter and in January
2010.
Inflation, meanwhile, continues to scale new heights. As per reports, the wholesale price
index (WPI) rose 8.56% in January from a year earlier, the highest since November 2008.
This has accelerated from a 7.3% rise in December. This means that the pressure on RBI
intensifies to raise interest rates. The problem that is confronting the RBI is also the soaring
fiscal deficit as a rise in interest rates will make borrowing costs dearer.

NIFTY traders are finding it hard to decide on the market trend. The maximum ‘Put’ open
interest (OI) base at 4700, cooling off of Volatility Index (VIX) from 31 levels and the
presence of Nifty 200-DMA near 4680, suggest the Nifty has strong support at 4680-4700
levels.
On the contrary, the plummeting ‘Call’ OI base at 4800-4900 strikes indicates mounting
selling pressure at higher levels. The Nifty is stuck in a tight range and may try to come out
of this. Nifty futures and index heavyweights like SBI, ITC, Bharti, Infosys and L&T have
seen heavy short build-up in the recent Nifty downside.
If the Nifty absorbs the continuous selling pressure from 4800 for a few sessions,

Daily analysis for the month of march
2nd march
NIFTY traders are finding it hard to decide on the market trend. The maximum ‘Put’ open
interest (OI) base at 4700, cooling off of Volatility Index (VIX) from 31 levels and the
presence of Nifty 200-DMA near 4680, suggest the Nifty has strong support at 4680-4700
levels.
On the contrary, the plummeting ‘Call’ OI base at 4800-4900 strikes indicates mounting
selling pressure at higher levels. The Nifty is stuck in a tight range and may try to come out
of this. Nifty futures and index heavyweights like SBI, ITC, Bharti, Infosys and L&T have
seen heavy short build-up in the recent Nifty downside.
If the Nifty absorbs the continuous selling pressure from 4800 for a few sessions,
these shorts may be forced to close. The aggressive selling trend of FIIs in the cash market
seems to have halted for the moment. In addition, initialsigns of short closure of index futures
by FIIs may lead to more short-covering in index heavyweights near supports. However, in
case of a breakdown below 4680, sharp downsides in the Nifty may not be negated.
Technology heavyweights are looking poised for short-covering if the Nifty finds support
at the current level of 4800. Infosys and TCS have major supports at Rs 2,450 and Rs 735,
respectively. Metals may find it hard to sustain at higher levels and short positions can be
formed in Tata Steel and Hindalco in case the Nifty is unable to hold 4800.

The benchmark Sensex closed above an important psychological 17,000 mark for the

slow to happen but there is a good nice consolidation happening. So I would not be unduly
worried."

Climb in BSE Sensex history, surpassing the just set record of 29 days that it took to
reach 11,000 from 10,000.
Here is a timeline on the rise and rise of the Sensex through Indian stock market
history.
1000, July 25, 1990 - On July 25, 1990, the Sensex touched the four-digit figure for
the first time and closed at 1,001 in the wake of a good monsoon and excellent
corporate results.
2000, January 15, 1992 - On January 15, 1992, the Sensex crossed the 2,000-mark
and closed at 2,020 followed by the liberal economic policy initiatives undertaken by
the then finance minister and current Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh.
3000, February 29, 1992 - On February 29, 1992, the Sensex surged past the 3000
mark in the wake of the market-friendly Budget announced by the then Finance
Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh.
4000, March 30, 1992 - On March 30, 1992, the Sensex crossed the 4,000-mark and
closed at 4,091 on the expectations of a liberal export-import policy. It was then that
the Harshad Mehta scam hit the markets and Sensex witnessed unabated selling.
5000, October 11, 1999 - On October 8, 1999, the Sensex crossed the 5,000-mark
as the BJP-led coalition won the majority in the 13th Lok Sabha election.
6000, February 11, 2000 - On February 11, 2000, the infotech boom helped the
Sensex to cross the 6,000-mark and hit and all time high of 6,006.
7000, June 21, 2005 - On June 20, 2005, the news of the settlement between the
January
The Manmohan Singh government and the Reserve Bank of India governor
Duvvuri Subbarao slashed taxes and opened the floodgates of liquidity boosting
people morale that brought back global investors
Mr Ramalinga Raju, chairperson of Satyam Computer Services disclosed an
accounting fraud, leading to the stock crashing more than 85% in a couple of
sessions.
. The benchmark indices opened on a flat note but soon edged downward, as
negative cues from global markets weighed on investor sentiments
February
- The Sensex closed on flat note in a volatile session .The markets did not get support
from the Economic survey and the Finance Minister’s statement that the Indian
economy is strong and will return to 9% growth rate by 2011-12.
Sensex was seen negative after arise in inflation.
MNC pharma stocks showed mixed trend.
Tata Motors's has had a very strong start to 2010 with global sales for January
growing by 93% on a year on year basis. These sales comprise of Tata, Tata Daewoo

March
India has been witness to a four-year up and down cycle in the stock markets. Since
1992, the Indian markets have peaked every fourth year and then dropped 35-45%
during the next three years. What is surprising though is that the Dalal Street has
bucked the trend this time around. Some of the major conclusions derived in the
study are as under.
Declaration of any financial result and other information of the company has
direct effect on its stock price.
News related to any political and economical affair has also the direct effect
on stock market.
In short, the following hypothesis have been tested and proved positive.
Any fluctuation in foreign market has more effect on Indian stock market
than that of domestic market.
In the given volatile economic conditions, the market is efficient to any
news and information.
At the end it is concluded that following are Major factors, which have generally
contributed to fall & rise in SENSEX & NIFTY:
1. US economic growth
2. Crude oil prices
3. Emerging market valuations
4. Foreign direct investment (FDI)
5. Capital spending
6. Equity supply
7. Government policy toward foreign firms
8. Politics
9. Domestic risk
10. Foreign institutional investors (FII) withdrawals
11. US Fed interest rates
12. Indian industry growth
13. Budget 2006-07 and finance bill
14. Tax circular regarding transaction tax to FII.
After this study, I would like to give following recommendations, which can help to the
Investors, Brokers and SEBI and the policy makers in general.
Investors
I would suggest that Long term Investors should not invest into panic market,
which led investors to erode their wealth.
I would also suggest that Investors should take into consideration various
things before investing into scripts such as:
Long term growth prospect in company
1. Financial positions of company
2. Liquidity position
3. Dividend policy
4. Past performance of company
Brokers
1. Brokers should separate their portfolio from High Net worth Individuals (HNI).
2. Brokers should not exceed their trading limit in terms of upper and lower limit.
3. Brokers should not go for margin trading which results into defalcation to the
investors.
4. Brokers should go for margin trading where HNIs are major clients because of
reputation working with them to some extent.
